For all of you book lovers out there, I want to recommend one that came out last year and have already read it twice. '11/22/63' by Stephen King. Absolutely brilliant and captivating.
This is King's latest work. It is about a teacher who is told by a dying friend about a portal that takes you back to the same moment in time, 1958, each time you enter. The friend tells him of his plan to go back in time and live there until 1963 and attempt to stop the assassination of JFK, but due to his health, cannot. The teacher decides to fulfill his wish and complete his plan. King actually had the idea for this early in his career back in the seventies, but put it off because of the amount of research it would require, as well as not feeling he was quite good enough a writer at the time to pull it off. Even if you are not a fan of King, I recommend this. Easily one of his five best novels. |
